Appling a Novel Cost Function to Hopfield Neural Network for Defects Boundaries Detection of Wood Image

A modified Hopfield neural network with a novel cost function was presented for detecting wood defects boundary in the image. Different from traditional methods, the boundary detection problem in this paper was formulated as an optimization process that sought the boundary points to minimize a cost...
